Description

By Pierre d'Hancarville, according to Barbier, who gives Naples ca. 1771 as probable place and date for the ed. in French only, rather than French and English. Title of present ed. has been changed from that cited by Barbier (Veneres et Priapi uti observantur in gemmis antiquis), and so is probably later

Pagination, v. 1: [35] leaves, 30 leaves of plates; v. 2: [36] leaves, 35 leaves of plates. Title leaf of v. 1 numbered as 1st plate, that of v. 2 unnumbered

Barbier, A.A. Ouvrages anonymes
